Chapter 9: Evil Fire
han Yanqing, his voice sharp. "You better know what you're talking about."Jan Yu-bai's face was even paler than before, as if she had been hurt by what Jan Yan-qing had said. She lowered her head and..."Brother, you're so cruel." Jiang Mingzhu pouted and accused him, "They say that after a night of marriage, one should have a hundred days of kindness. Can't you be nice to me"
Jiang Mingzhu didn't expect Zhou Li to reply. From his contemptuous eyes, she already saw what he meant: you're not worthy
“What if your brother breaks it when he tries it I wonder, how will you explain that later” Ginger Mingzhu whispered in his ear, her voice innocent, but her words were arrogant.
Zhou Li dislikes being threatened, and he especially dislikes being threatened by a woman like Jiang Mingzhu. This woman is relentless, provoking him time and time again, she has already crossed his bottom line.
"Get out of here." Zhou Li commanded coldly.
Ginger Mingzhu refused and, with all her might, pressed herself against him. Their bodies came into contact when she touched his arm. Zhou Li pushed her even harder. The two of them struggled for a while, but in the end, Ginger Mingzhu was pulled forward by Zhou Li's strength and fell.
Ginger Mingzhu knelt half-way in front of Zhou Li, her chin resting on his thigh.
This pose is more ambiguous than the last one.
Zhou Li's temples jumped, his muscles tensed, and his lips pressed into a thin line.
Jiang Mingzhu wasn't at all embarrassed. She stopped there, giving him an ambiguous smile. "Brother always says one thing and does another."
That dog, saying he looked down on her, ended up being completely charmed by her in the end.
Zhou Li remained silent, his deep eyes fixed on the woman beneath him. Her black hair and white dress, meant to be the epitome of purity, yet she was engaged in such a reckless act.
Zhou Li grabbed her up, his strong hand pressing down on the back of her head, "So, is Zhan Yanqing not enough for you"
When a man starts asking a woman about her and other men, what does it mean
Ginger Mingzhu knew the man's weaknesses very well.
She remained silent, her eyes reddening visibly. Tears swirled in them, as if she had suffered a great injustice. "Why do you always humiliate me like this Just because I like you, am I supposed to be trampled on and have my self-respect crushed"
Zhou Li: ...
Jiang Mingzhu suddenly stopped leaning against him, seeming to be truly hurt by the slight. She brushed his hand away and returned to her own seat.
Soon, the other people in the car came back. Zhou Li looked at Jiang Mingzhu from the rearview mirror; her eyes were no longer red and she was laughing and chatting with Zhan Yanqing.
Upon arriving at the hot spring resort, it was lunchtime. All my other friends had already arrived, they were all familiar faces from North City's wealthy circles.
"Yanqing, Yu Baijie, Fourth Brother, you're here." Zhou Ming came up to greet them.
Ginger Mingzhu had met Zhou Ming before, but she only nodded slightly and stood aside without speaking. She kept a good sense of proportion.
Zhou Ming came to arrange the rooms, “Fourth Brother, Yu Bai sister, I chose a suite for you two, okay”
These two are an unmarried couple, they've been together for many years. It's not unusual for them to stay together when they go out to play, but James Yen-Qing and Ginger Ming-Zhu need to be more careful.
Zhou Ming asked Zhan Yanqing, "How are things arranged with Miss Jiang"
Of course, Jian Yanqing wanted to live together, but Jiang Mingzhu quickly replied, "I'll just stay in the most ordinary shared room."
Her voice was not loud, but it was enough for those around her to hear. The way others looked at her had become more complex.
Jan Yichen said, "Give her a suite all by herself."
The final arrangement is that Zhou Li and Zhan Yu Bai share a suite, while Jiang Mingzhu and Zhan Yan Qing each have their own suites.
For convenience, it is arranged on the same floor.
After putting down their luggage, the group went to a restaurant for dinner. Ginger Mingzhu had only met this group once and wasn't close with them, so she didn't participate in their conversation.
Although Zhou Li spoke the least, his standing among this group was high, so the conversations essentially revolved around him.
For example, after he returned home, the company's development plan and several new technology projects he had invested in...
Jian Yu Bai seemed to be in a good mood, and had drunk several cups. As he was about to pour another, Zhou Li grabbed his hand.
"Drink a little less, your stomach isn't doing well." Gentle and low, with a deep concern.
Jiang Mingzhu put down the cake in her hand and pretended to glance at the two people across from her.
Those at the table, seeing this scene, had already begun to tease, "If Fourth Brother could be so gentle with me too..."
"What are you thinking about After all these years, you still don't know this is Yu Baijie's special treatment."
Ginger Mingzhu sneered inwardly, what a special treatment.
She pretended nothing had happened, glancing down at the table. Her foot nudged Zhou Li's calf, her toes rubbing against his trouser leg.
Zhou Li's body stiffened, remaining motionless as she looked over at Jiang Mingzhu. Her eyes held a hint of warning and disgust.
Jiang Mingzhu put on an innocent face, but her actions became even more brazen as she reached towards his thigh with her foot.
Zhou Li saw her expression, a wicked fire surged in his chest. He reached down and grabbed her ankle with all his might."If I say one more word, I'll have to leave."Yuan Ye zipped his lips shut and fell silent.Xu Siyan and Zhou Li recounted what had happened in the basement earlier. Remembering Jiang Mingzhu's arrogant...
